Krátky popis
'Transformative and a fascinating read, this book will open your
ears to the world of sound and change your life' Steven Bartlett,
bestselling author of The Diary of a CEO'A fascinating insight into
the power of sound' Susan Cain, No. 1 New York Times bestselling
author of QUIETEvery day, the sounds around us affect every aspect
of our human experience, and thus fundamentally alter our quality
of life, for better or worse. It is only recently that scientists
have realised that sounds connect us to the world in ways that are
every bit as vivid and evocative as visual landscapes.Hearing is
the first sense we develop, and as our primary warning sense it is
hardwired into our brains. And yet, in an increasingly noisy and
distracted world, most people pay scant attention to the sounds
around them, causing them to lose contact with the essential skill
of listening. Sound Affects is about rediscovering the wonder of
sound, and understanding how powerfully it affects us, whether we
are paying attention or not.It is also a manual for taking back
responsibility for the sounds we consume and the sounds we make, so
we can enhance our own happiness, effectiveness and well-being.In
the process, the reader will discover that:- stars are like bells,
ringing with sound black holes make sound 50 octaves below what we
can hear - snapping shrimp may be only 1cm long but they make sound
that's as loud as a rock concert - whales can communicate
underwater over hundreds of miles with very low frequency sound
that travels five times as fast as sound in air - individual cells
make unique sounds, enabling scientists detect early signs of
metastases - dolphins have names and call each other by them
